Deflection Plates

Containment: The height of the trap along with its complete wall to wall design ensures that every round fired downrange is contained.

Solid Construction: From 1/4 to 1-inch thick AR500 or AR550, the right steel options are available to handle everything from small to large calibers.

Tactical: The carefully calculated angles of the plates are ideal for tactical and cross-lane shooting.

&nbsp

Deceleration Chamber

Rounds pass through the open mouth and into the sealed Vortex™ chamber where they spin along the wall of the chamber and decelerate. They are deposited into individual containers or a screw conveyor system.

Sealed: The chamber uses a patented design to ensure it remains sealed even when affected by the force of bullets.

Durable: The shape and quality of ballistic steel are precisely engineered to capture millions of rounds without damage.

Bullet Collection Systems

Once decelerated, rounds fall into a Bullet Collection System located below the Vortex deceleration chamber. Action Target offers three different options to fit any range or budget.

Auto 55: The most advanced collection system that uses a screw conveyor to automatically move bullets from the deceleration chamber into a 55-gallon drum. Fill levels are monitored using a control panel and a computer user interface.

Deluxe 20: The latest offering from Action Target uses a 20-gallon drum that can be rolled out of place when full. Fill levels are monitored through a built-in sight window. The Deluxe 20 requires less frequent replacement that any collection system on the market. LEARN MORE>

Basic 03: The most basic collection method utilizes 3.5-gallon canisters that attach directly to the deceleration chamber. This system requires the most frequent replacement, but offers the lowest entry price point.

Dust Collection Unit (DCU)

Using negative pressure, the dust collection system draws lead dust from the trap and deposits it into a containment system.

Clean: Hazardous lead dust is drawn into sealed and easy to transport containers.

Patented Uptake Manifold: A newly designed manifold prevents large materials from clogging the system.
